It is often praised as the “perfume of teas.”

Phoenix Dancong tea is an oolong tea (qingcha) and a semi-fermented tea. Its signature aroma, especially the Honey Orchid fragrance of aged bushes, is considered the soul of the tea.

Precautions

Phoenix Dancong tea undergoes charcoal roasting, resulting in a relatively mild nature; however, it should not be consumed on an empty stomach or brewed too strongly, as this may irritate the gastric mucosa or cause heart palpitations (often referred to as "tea intoxication").

Individuals suffering from neurasthenia or severe insomnia, as well as pregnant women, should limit their intake or avoid drinking it in the evening.
